Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

I am 8 weeks PP and gained 50 lbs. In the first 4 weeks I lost 30 lbs, then in the last 4 weeks only about 5 but I have "shrunk" alot in my stomach despite not losing much weight.

So all in all I still have 15lbs to go, I really have to get moving on this...

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

I gained 30lbs during pg to the dot on the day i delivered. I lost only 12lbs immed. I BF and have been eating healthy but have not been able to work exercise into my routine :(

At 3 mos i could fit into my old pre-pg bigger clothes HOWEVER, they did not fit the same. Since 4 mos pp I have been 5lbs from pre-pg weight but clothes still not fit right. That said, I am pretty sure (and hoping) that once I can get myself back to regular exercising my body will have a better chance of fitting into my clothes normally.

I think everyone is different and to a large extent it depends on your body. Until i was 3 mos pp my belly still looked pg - and I was BF and eating sooo healthy

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

At 9 months PP, I still had about 20 lbs to loose. But I also needed to loose weight before I got preggo. I joined WW, lost the 20 lbs in about 3 months and now, 6 months later am 40 lbs lighter (20 lbs below my pre pregnancy weight).

I gained 63 lbs when I was preggo

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

well, first off i gained 65 pounds i lost 20 before i came out of the hosptial, and now my little girl is 4 months old and i am almost back to my weight by 7 pounds,
and i do not diet i eat whatever

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

Probably 6 months and I gained 48+ lbs. However it also took 6 months for me to start working out again, hence the weight loss...

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

My son will be a yr on Friday and I have lost all the weight from him plus a little from my middle guy. I would still like to lose atleast 10 more lbs. We'll see though because I'm not ready to give up the sweats

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

About a month or so...I am back to my pre-pregnancy weight...actually I weigh less than I did before I got pregnant.

ETA: I gained 30 lbs. during my pregnancy and lost 25 lbs. during the first 2 weeks...my uterus shrunk very quickly (even my dr tol me this when she checked me right before I was discharged).

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

I was a lucky one and lost it right away. (I went home in pre preggo clothes) but I wasnt toned so a lot of the clothes didnt fit right amnymore. I really think everyone is diferent though, its hard to tell what will happen......

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

I gained 47lbs & now at 7 months PP & I still have 10lbs to go to get to my pre-pregnancy weight but then still want to lose 15 more lbs.

This last 10lbs isn't easy though...its also very hard to find the time to exercise/get to the gym w/ work & baby.

Also although some clothes fit, they fit differently.

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

I never had a problem losing the weight. I was at my pre-pregnancy weight within a few weeks. But it took a few months after I got the dr's okay to get to the gym and get things back in order and toned up.

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

My DS is almost 2 and a half and even though I actually went down past my pre-preganacy weight (after 4 months on Jenny Craig )...My clothes still never fit the same- Now I have gained back some of it and we are tring for #2...Good Luck !

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

I definately still looked pregnant at 3 months pp. It was so depressing. I only got back to myself at about 9 months and I think due to 3 stomach viruses back to back!

Now I lost all of the weight but look different. DH doesn't believe me that I actually weigh less then when we got engaged 4 years ago today

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

Thank you so much for all of your reponses!

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

Not even a couple months. I wound up loosing a lot more than my pregnancy weight within 6 months. I did a lot of walking with DD and Breast feeding.

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

i came home from the hospital my pre pregnacy weight.. i only gained 20 lbs iwth the twins and they were 5lbs 4oz each... i pumped the minute they put me in a room.. i got up and walked soon as they took the catheter out.. but im nuts anyway..

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

9 months on - 9 months off. I found this to be very true. I didn't diet and was fine with how I looked after giving birth but it slowly came off.

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

i am 7 1/2 month PP and have around 10 pounds to go (gained 40 with the pregnancy) however i was very thin to begin with, so even though i know i have weight to lose, other people think i lost it all and am back to normal. The first 30 came off so easy and the last 10 are taking forever (however i am not really dieting/exercising).
Truthfully, i need to tone up again, more then anything. oh and my body shape changed, I never had hips or a stomach and now my hips are def wider, so even if i lose the last 10 pounds, i dont know if i will get back to my pre pregnancy size

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

For my second, I gained 55 pounds and lost all but 10 by 6 weeks pp when we had a wedding to go to . I fit into a dress that was a tiny bit big on me before the wedding.

Re: How long did it take to loose the pregnancy weight?

I gained 50 lbs with DD and got preggo again at 9 months pp. I still had 25 lbs to go. I only lost 8 lbs coming out of the hospital
